LTE-ADVANCED AND NEXT GENERATION WIRELESS NETWORKS CHANNEL MODELLING AND PROPAGATION doc

[...]... emitters and users That is why channel modelling and propagation, which is sometimes seen as an old topic, is very important and must have full consideration Indeed, in order to study the performance of future wireless networks, it is very important to be able to characterize the wireless channel into different scenarios and and to be able to take into account the new situations introduced by future networks. .. the body Propagation and Channel Models This book presents an overview of models of how the channel will behave in different scenarios, and how to use these channel models to study the performance of 4G and beyond networks 4G is imminent, so we believe it is good timing to have a book on channel propagation for these aspects Moreover, future wireless networks will never stop using larger bandwidth,... that LTE-Advanced will have to support more antennas, larger bandwidth, more cells and different scenarios compared to traditional cellular networks Then Chapter 2 will explain the principle of channel modelling and radio propagation as well as the main important concepts and theory • The second part of this book details the properties of the radio channel in main scenarios suitable for 4G and beyond wireless. .. 259 and 273, the EVEREST and NEWCOM research projects He has also been involved in work within the 3GPP and the ITU standardization bodies His research interests include the combination of statistical signal processing techniques with electromagnetic theory with a focus on antenna -channel interactions, RF propagation channel measurements and simulations and advanced numerical tools for wireless propagation. .. USA) He holds a Dipl-Ing from CPE Lyon, and a MSc and PhD from INSA Lyon He was the PI of European FP7 project CWNetPlan on radio propagation for combined wireless network planning He is a co-author of the book Femtocells: Technologies and Deployment, Wiley, 2010 and a guest editor of EURASIP JWCN, Special issue on Radio Propagation, Channel Modeling and Wireless Channel Simulation tools for Heterogeneous... (Multiple antennas, larger bandwidth, OFDMA, and so on) whose aim is to help reach very high capacity even in mobility conditions 4G and beyond network are not deployed yet, however most of industry and researchers focus on developing new products, algorithms, solutions and applications Like all wireless networks the performance of 4G and beyond networks depend for a major part on the channel, that is, how... technical and commercial maturity is very high This success would not have been possible without understanding radiowave propagation This knowledge enables us to design successful systems and networks, together with waveforms, antennal and transceiver architectures The radio channel is the cornerstone to the operation of any wireless system Today, mobile networks support millions of users and applications...
